30th Century Child

Faceless dreams and fears, could they lead over the frame
of fadeless ash and tears ? These windows of pain…
With confused drawings on their foggy glass of shame.

As the time reveals the view
Behind the mist and breeze
The steps and proofs that we’ve stood
Are wrapped dead by the greed
of this cold age.

When nothing matters at the edge all secrets end.
Childhoods in the flames, all futures lost in the rains.

Is it to realize there could be one last empty page ?

Abased to satisfy
The brainwashed, fake potentials
Should we still err, and stare, as if we didn’t care ?
Or wake ourselves to brave the unfair ?

Disgraced to glorify
A main cause that resigned far
Should we be proud to ride this path we cannot guide ?
And keep ourselves outwards of what is bright ?

Explore, don't grieve what is to crave
Comply to what is pure
Disclose that they wish underplayed
Our aims they say assured

Disguised, we mourn in lies
Confined, gently being sacrificed
Is there a price, such high, for which now we should die
In vain, restrained from screaming loud ?

Why more ? can’t they hear « save me » ? 
Imploring what is wrong
Above, beyond what they can’t see
Once more, it’s left alone. 

It’s blind, confined, a shine they cannot grind,
Still now striving to survive, remain alive, inside.

As long as I can greet the night
Holding onto the light
From all the stars they cannot hide
Weeping at the sight

If it requires to end this life
I will say goodbye
To save and grace what is to praise
Embrace the pain and die.

How long is it now meant to bleed ?
Belying what was done
The words they want us to believe
The truth will break the thrones.

The lines, defined, to separate our minds,
Will see us unify, for the dream that still remains, alive.
